When to Franchise? - When Is Franchising Most Appropriate?
- Franchising is most appropriate when a firm has a strong or potentially strong trademark, a well-designed business method, and a desire to grow.
- In some instances franchising is not appropriate.
- For example, franchising works for Burger King but would not work for Walmart.
- Each individual Burger King store is relatively small and policies and procedures can be written for almost any contingency.
- In contrast, Walmart stores are much larger, more expensive to build, and more complex to run compared to Burger King. It would be nearly impossible for Walmart to find enough franchisees with the financial capital and expertise to run its more than 11,000 stores.
